We have suspected that we had snappers in our pond, but yesterday there was a confirmed sighting of a "more than a footer".
Our coursin, who was there at the time, offered this rural newbie these factoids:
1) There's probably more.
2) Turtle traps are available and work pretty well.
3) Turtles have 7 different kinds of delicious meat on them. (My wife would kill me)
4) If my dog (labrador) or I...were to go into the pond, the turtles would head in the other direction.
5) They aren't pests so nothing needs to be done about them.
So whaddaya you guys think about these points?
